Project 365, Week 51

December 13

This is a bad picture, but it represents our day of having people over to watch football. Amanda planted herself between her two uncles, in her princess outfit with her pink Polly car. They are so good with her!

The girls played so well together all day. Here, they are hiding from the Nazis.

While the two little ones were sleeping, Avery and I worked on some cookies. We both thought my cookie press was really cool. When it came time to decorate, she didn't want to hear anything about red and green colors.

My mom has been coming over with some regularity to take the kids from me for a couple hours so I can work. Its so nice to have a block of time to count on and the kids love time with her, too.

Amanda was fresh out of her bath and just too sweet sitting in her little rocking chair, holding her bear, in her bunny towel...I had to take some pictures. Some came out good...some, not so much.

December 18

Avery was anxiously waiting to be picked up for some fun with her Pop and Kiki and cousin Allison.

Amanda had dress rehearsal for The Nutcracker. I had to keep her quiet backstage, while holding my purse and camera bag, pants and shoes and...oh yes, Aiden. For an hour. But, she did look cute. This little girl has taken a liking to Amanda, almost taking her under her wing.

Shaun is still working on the house and with all the windows done, the trim and paint should go fairly quickly. I don't like to watch when Shaun is out on his "scaffolding".

The Nutcracker Ballet is so fun! I took my daughter for the first time when she was 4; she couldn't sit still so it was a good thing we were up in the balcony on the end of a row -- she danced in the aisle :-) Amanda looks adorable in her costume!

About Me

I am married to the man of my dreams, my best friend, and together we have two little girls and a boy. My desire is that this blog and my everyday life will bring glory to God.
I thank God for all I've been given at the end of everyday...I have been blessed.
